Tumble drying programmes
Note: Dispensers used for concentrated powders and liquid detergents must be removed from the drum before commencing the tumble drying programmes
Drying Process
The load is dried in thermostatically controlled warm air.
The drum changes direction during the drying cycle to prevent the laundry from tangling and hence produce even drying. Cool air is used during the last ten minutes of the drying cycle to minimise creasing.
Two heat settings can be selected, high dry 
.for cotton and linen or low dry
for synthetics. See Sorting the Laundry for more details.
Drying time can be selected as a separate programme or at the end of the wash cycle. If you are selecting the drying phase at the end of the wash cycle ensure that you have not exceeded the maximum load (3kg cotton or 1kg synthetics).

Sort the load as follows:
